59 Chapter 59: Resisting desire

Zack's POV

When he had woken up an hour ago, he was lying on the cold floor along with a very tired looking Elize near a pool. Her eyes were almost closing when the slightest movement of his arm woke her up. She rubbed her eyes and looked at him with a relieved expression.

"Are you awake?" She had asked.

"Hmm. Where are we?" He remembered asking.

"Good. Now let me sleep." She replied, ignoring his question.

Without waiting for his opinion, she dozed off, using his arm as a pillow. It was with much effort that he carried her in his arms without waking her up towards what seemed like a connecting room. Upon entering it, he was stunned for a moment as his gaze landed on the strange white rocks that emanated a pale warm glow. He stood there awestruck at the pristine architecture that surrounded them.

"What is this place?" Zack mused aloud.
